There is a trend right now to stimulate your system to go into Ketosis mode (Ketogenic diet). Is this really a desired state, both in the short and long term?

Good morning, sir,

There are several fads right now in the nutrition world. Gluten free, vegan, and of course the ketogenic diet.

Although I am not an expert on the subject (a nutritionist would be much more knowledgeable than I am on the subject), I can tell you that this diet is not recommended for everyone, due to its high concentration of protein and fat. Originally created for children suffering from epilepsy, this diet should be followed up with a nutritionist in the general population, in order to avoid deficiencies and to ensure that it is adapted to your situation.

I recommend that you discuss this with the best health professional for this type of question: the nutritionist/dietitian.

We look forward to seeing you,
